You should first check your state game laws. In PA I know it is illegal to bait game animals.

Peanut Butter.
Ditto , they're suckers for that stuff . They also go batty for fresh sweet corn . Be sure to check to see if baiting is allowed where you live .

Pumpkins....Takes them some time to get in but they love the seeds! Left overs from halloween do the trick every time!...Good Luck!

my brother-in-law sets up a 5 gal. bucket with a small hole cit into the side at the bottom.he puts it on a board nailed to a tree.the board sticks out a few in. bayond the bucket( a place for the tree rats to sit on ).he fills the bucket with sunflower seeds and corn.he watches and when one hops on the board he hollers for the grandkids.they get the shot.

it takes about two years befor he has to change the bucket,(from the 410 shots and the squirrels eating at the hole.[8D]:D
